Helping agents build
a future of their own.
Jamie Chirio is the president of Living Hope Life Group. He started in insurance in 2020, after years as a serial entrepreneur still looking for his home in business. He had been building sales teams since he was eighteen at Michigan State University, and had already launched companies of his own — two of which failed, one leaving him personally bankrupt. Then he found insurance, and realized he had been searching for the best business there is.
He got licensed and helped eight families in his first weekend. He built most of his business from a small farmhouse in rural Oregon, driving hundreds of miles a day to serve families in their homes. He has since written more than $3 million in annual premium on his own pen and been inducted into his company’s Hall of Fame four times. Thousands of families have been served on his own book, and hundreds of agents have been trained to serve families of their own.
The number he cares about most is people. Jamie has helped hundreds of agents go full time and build a six-figure-plus income. He prides himself on teaching agents the simple words and philosophies behind helping families with insurance — nothing complicated, just a repeatable way to serve people well.
His real passion is training new agents and getting them to that light bulb moment, when it clicks that selling life insurance and building an agency can change your life. He also wants agents to learn the lessons he learned the hard way: plan for taxes, manage commissions carefully, reinvest in leads, and treat this like a real business.
Jamie runs Living Hope from Greenville, South Carolina. His wife and three boys are the reason he works so hard.
